Samba Stuck on Authentication (Debian Cinnamon with Nemo)

So i have this problem that samba stuck on authentication and keep asking for password loop forever. And googling about this problem, i found out that i am not alone. Of course some problem is kind of different and some problem quite similar. And there's quite a lot of solution too that involved editing config from the terminal.
 
It doesn't matter whatever you choose, either forget password immedately, remember password until you logout or remember forever, the password pop up dialog box keep recurring.
 
Dig deeper into google search engine, i found that someone has a very simple solution just to kill the gnome-keyring-daemon on startup.

Go to System Setting and search for startup application.
System settings.
Disable the SSH Key Agent (GNOME Keyring : SSH Agent), and then restart the computer.


Problem solved and dang! its so simple. It's harder to google the right solution than to implement it.

Well, good day and back to work!
